This Debian reference covers many aspects of system administration through shell command examples. System installation, basic tutorials, Debian package management, Linux kernel on Debian, tips, tuning system, building gateway, editors, CVS, programming, GnuPG and others are covered.http://qref.sourceforge.net/apt-get.org is intended as a place for people to share useful APT (Advanced Package Tool) sources for the Debian operating system.http://www.apt-get.org/Backports are recompiled packages from testing (mostly) and unstable (in a few cases only, e.g. security updates), so they will run without new libraries (wherever it is possible) on a stable Debian distribution. I recommend you to pick out single backports which fits your needs, and not to use all backports available here.http://www.backports.org/Getting Debian ISOs has always been a painful, slow and supremely inefficient process. Jigdo is a new tool for obtaining Debian ISOs in an easy, fast and very efficient manner. This HOWTO describes why you should use jigdo, a little bit about how it works and how you use it to get and update Debian ISOs.http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Debian-Jigdo/index.htmlWelcome to my guide to window managers and desktop environments for The X Window System, as used mainly by Linux and UNIX operating systems. Here you will find descriptions, screenshots and configuration files for all popular window managers, along with related resources, including a news and discussion area. Simply click on the appropriate links on the left, or below.http://www.xwinman.org/http://newbiedoc.sourceforge.net/tranquilo

Learn the Linux way of changing your desktop settings (from TechRepublic

We've put together this handy Windows-to-Linux charticle that lists the common things that you do to alter the Windows appearance, along with the corresponding Linux GNOME and KDE methods. The charticle shows how to do things in Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP versus how to do it in GNOME 2.4 and KDE 3.1 under SuSe Linux 8.2. Exact key combinations and menu settings may vary slightly, depending on the version of Windows that you're used to and the version of Linux, KDE, and/or GNOME you're using.
The ChartThis would be most useful to new Linux users but even if you have to use a window manager of which you're not familiar or somebody makes you use Windows (yeck!), it can be a help.

Don't know if this has been posted yet, but: :D IBM Linux tutorialsLooks like a good place to learn to use Linux. :thumbsup:It does require registration, but doesn't look like a phishing expedition.

Here's one that helped me to monitor a thing or two on my motherboard, though ASUS refuses to share a Data Sheet:lm_sensorsFrom there are many links to sites that help to diagnose which boards have sensors and what chip controls them.My board uses the as99127f smbus chip. Yet again, I have hardware from someone that has no desire to support Linux. Looks like I'll be buying my next one from someone else.

I downloaded one of the Ubuntu books above. it seems it is in .chm form, however. What Linux utility (for Ubuntu) could I install which would read chm's?

Obviously a Gnome app would be better for Ubuntu, but if you run KDE there is KchmViewer. Works fine for me, and it's in Debian repos. :thumbsup: :P
